This session will be highly interactive, targeted primarily at existing Health Catalyst clients. First, our “three amigos” will introduce the concept of three user groups focused around analytics, deployment, and clinical knowledge assets, and solicit your feedback and input on the best way to collaborate and share best practices. Then we will introduce our new product category offerings, and solicit your interactive input and priorities as a guide to our future product roadmap.
